Because if they're using the tube as a daily method of transport and
not as once-a-month day out (in which case why waste money on disabled
access, just pay for a dial-a-ride taxi) then they'll more than likely
be travelling in the rush hour unless they've managed to get special
dispensation from their boss to work different hours to everyone
else.

This argument is going round in a circle.
DLR fully accessible, as is Jubilee Line extension. More and more Tube
stations are becoming accessible as they are refitted.
Which means more and more wheelchair users can use the system - and do.
More stations opened up equals more journeys being made. Its called a
'network'.
